What happened in Turkish football today? 03/05/2019


Basaksehirspor keeps carrying on losing crucial points and puts its league title into real risks.

Basaksehirspor has lost another points during Super League 31st week game against Sivasspor as it has failed to win during last 3 weeks and currently are having a huge risk at losing its opportunity to get league title in the end of the season.

In fact, Basaksehirspor has come out to the game with high opportunity to get control of its fate as its main rivals for league title Galatasaray and Besiktas would be playing against each other on 5th May. It needs to be admitted that Basaksehirspor has been provided much more willing and attacking compare to last week Goztepe game, but this factor of providing lack of  creative game at the attack has once again costed Basaksehirspor its opportunity to win game without doubt. Another aspect which has been aimed that Basaksehirspor carries on providing similar performance which it did beforehand but as league gets to last weeks and all of the sides are showing much more controllable and focussed game, same tactics doesnt seem to be case. It does look like Basaksehirspor after getting 8 point advantage only 3 weeks ago, which by any marks would lead for team to win league title, it carries on losing point back to back. Basaksehirspor once again comes to the point at not gathering points when it matters and team and to some extend Abdullah Avci are not able to get wins at the weeks when it matters and with aspects it would be hard for team to get any league title not only this season but also in upcoming seasons.

On other hand, Sivasspor has provided good performance with mainly focussing into defensive game and as time went by it start creating some of the chances as game has been progressed. It is hard to state that Sivasspor was aiming to win game but more like not to lose game and has managed successfully to prevent opponent at finding goals. Sivasspor did provide vision meanwhile that it can provide good performance at the last 3 games of the season.

Basaksehirspor is getting into moment when it loses league title by its own poor performance and would hope for now for derby game to end with draw, but most importantly even if that game ends with draw it needs to improve its performance.

Fenerbahce needs to win Kasimpasa if it doesnt want to  have nervous end of the season.

Fenerbahce would be coming to very important game against Kasimpasa during Super League 31st week to prevent risk at having very nervous last weeks of the season as it would aim to secure at staying league in few weeks time.

Regarding of conditions of all teams at the bottom and also taking account that only 4 weeks left until end of the season and currently Fenerbahce having 4 point advantage from relegation zone, it is expected that for team winning 2 games would be enough for them not to be relegated. Quite naturally Fenerbahce without doubt would like to secure its stay at the Super League prior to last 2 weeks and hence would be coming out to the game with an aim to win. Kasimpasa meanwhile needs to be stated is not showing great performance right now and hence would only see this game as an opportunity to win game against big clubs but as it is known this is strong motivation especially taking account general performance of Fenerbahce. Hence, Fenerbahce needs to aim at least to show winning performance, as high level performance will not be highly expected from team sadly. Key for a game is for Fenerbahce players to realise importance of game and perform accordingly.

Fenerbahce are coming out as favourite due of status and position of the team, but it also needs to perform like favourite and this what team failed to do for most amount of games this season.

Burak Yilmaz is more likely to score than Mbiaye Diagne during derby game.

As would been expected, whole focus of the Turkish football community is currently given to Super League 31st week derby game between Galatasaray and Besiktas as winner of this game, could also become champions at the end of the season.

The main focus of the game would be also given to attackers of both sides as closest players to the goal at Galatasaray is being Mbiaye Diagne while for Besiktas is Burak Yilmaz. Even through Galatasaray does have an advantage at playing home, it should be stated that Burak Yilmaz chance to score goal is much more higher taking account high level performance and amount of goals scored by Yilmaz while Diagne still didnt get used to the level which is expected from him at Galatasaray. With Burak Yilmaz also playing against his ex-club would be also provided an additional motivation for him without doubt. Saying that Mbiaye Diagne, would be seeing this game as good opportunity to prove himself and find goals but rather than staying motivated he also needs to convert chances when he recieves as so far he managed to do so only at penalties.

As natural main role for winning such crucial game and make step towards league title would be with attackers and in this front Besiktas is ahead as it has Burak Yilmaz at its dispoal.
